senator kelly ayotte. senator, you say you are more troubled now after your hour-long meeting with ambassador rice and acting cia director mike morell. why is that? >> the big concern that i have is there was an impression left and i certainly went into the meeting with this impression that the unclassified talking points, that is what she relied upon, and certainly that's in part what she said on each of the major networks, but as part of her duties as ambassador to the u.n. she also reviews the daily intelligence briefings, including the classified versions. it's already been reported, wolf, that the classified version of course said that individuals with ties to al qaeda were involved in the attacks. that was then removed from the unclassified version. so if you had reviewed those and then reviewed the classified, why would you want to go on and represent and leave out the al qaeda portion? and what's particularly of concern is that in the interview with "face the nation" and "meet the press" not only d
